Character Background and Description
Sang is a Korean woman living in the lower class of Jisang Tower. She is one of the younger tattoo artists in the guild, but her talent quickly gained her the respect of her seniors. Her approach to tattoos is very whimsical, routed in traditional shamanistic mythology and the power of prayers inked on skin. She has an intense respect for traditional Buddhist and other cultures tattoos, and studies their history to incorporate it into her art, making sure to maintain respect and authenticity to tradition. Her tattoo prayers are centered around protection and devotion. She enters an almost meditative state as she works, and her clients leave with beautiful intricate symbols that connect to them on deep personal levels.

Sang's own tattoos are done by her mentors and close friends, each done in their style instead of being dictated by Sang, and she is absolutely covered in them. She cherishes each tattoo as a piece of her friend given to her to protect and remember. She also has a few Buddhist prayers and a series of numbers hidden on the back of her neck, representing when members of her family passed away, disappeared via militia/police, or joined the AFTER.

Sang is a quiet, serious woman. She tries to genuinely connect with anyone she meets, especially those who come to her for tattoos.

She is passionate about her art, and loves trading stories with her clients while she works on them. She is quietly part of a small resistant against Mantra Corporation. She dislikes how they warped Eomeoni to benefit their corporate motives, and the commercialization of the afterlife in the form of their server. She protests the mystery shrouding them and believes them to be corrupting the soul to use for their own gains. Her friends amongst the scavengers support these beliefs in their group. She has yet to venture to the closed off levels, and is nervous what she could find.

She is tall and thin, with thick black hair that falls to between her shoulder blades. She keeps it braided back while she tattoos. She usually wears short sleeves to show off her tattoos, and enjoys finding different seamstresses with unique patterning. In addition to her tattoos, all done in black, she has some facial and ear piercings.
